Fall (or as “Fall” as we get in these parts) is upon us and with that said, it is time to start thinking of the holidays. It seems that once Halloween hits it is all a uphill race to keep up with life!

September means the start of a fresh new school year (well late August, but we will not fret over that!). This is a great time to slow down and capture our little ones as they grow. It gives us an opportunity to gauge their changes yearly.

October is National Family Portrait Month! Be on the lookout for special events to celebrate family and help others. Let’s not forget Halloween, for those of us that share in the tradition!

November brings the warm colors and cool air (more often than not) of the pumpkin patch, Thanksgiving Day school pageants and (almost always) way too much to eat! Sneak some football here and some holiday shopping just for kicks! Don’t forget the yearly event of the Raul Jimenez Thanksgiving Dinner! By the way, holiday orders will need to be in by November 15, 2007 to be guaranteed for holiday delivery. Do note that some boutique orders require 8-12 weeks! I plan a greeting card promotion for my clients that have had sessions this year! More on that soon!

This brings us to December, where we share in the many different traditions and reflect on the year gone by. And then it is time to start another year anew!
